So, I just got this game today. I played the tutorial and a practice match.

So far, it's looking to be better than Dot A in my eyes.

Anyone else play this? Maybe give me some tips?

I abandoned Dot A after a handful of matches because... Well... Everyone who played it was a vicious, hateful venom-spewing engine of pure spite who had zero tolerance towards anything except exact perfection from their teammates. This is only a slight exageration.

Lo L (lol!) is a lot better... Right now. I really hope that it doesn't start growing players with the same mindset as it's predecessor because the gameplay is supremely fun.

Well, back in Dot A, I primarily played private matches with friends, however, when most everyone else outclasses you, it's really difficult to catch up.

Anyways, my first practice match was with Annie, I didn't really like playing her all that much.

My second one was with Nunu. At first it was like meh, but then I got his Ultimate... Holy shit Absolute Zero is awesome! It's all like, IMMA CHARGIN MAH LAZOR and then KA-BEUUUUUUUM! I killed the Sivir bot like three or four times with it. Compared to getting only one kill with Annie. And even if you don't kill or at least severely damage a Champion with it, you still can kill a bunch of minions, clearing the way for your minions.

Gangplank's my favorite champion. Maybe it's because i've always want to use someone that comes packing a Sword and Gun or maybe it's because i've always supported pirates over ninjas. Or maybe i just love dropping a huge bombardment of cannonfire onto the heads of everyone. I ahd a 5 win streak using him before being brutally humiliated.

Although when i want to play someone a bit more durable i go with Rammus. Rawr!

Yeah. The game's fun. I might have to grab some riot points.

I tried playing with people instead of bots, and I ran into the same damn problem as back in Dota: the other team leveled faster.

I'm just gonna stick to playing with bots.

A cinematic trailer for Season 1 has been announced and released on the website. Here it is

It's full of Gameplay and Story Segregation, but it was so awesome I shed Manly Tears.

Also, Kayle has a face!

This thread deserves to be among the living. I play this game all the time. If I believed in silly things like "common sense" or " the doctor's advice", I would need to play this less. But I don't.

I mainly use Vlad, though I am fickle and buy a new character every time I have enough instead of saving for runes. Who else plays? We could make a TV Tropes clan or something.

Are you level 30 yet? If so, I'd just say to save your IP for runes until later. The runes you can get later are much better, and you might as well keep a hold of the champions you've played and like.

Maybe, but I am almost 20, and 20+ all use the same runes as 30s. I don't even like half of the characters I've bought for more than a few games. If I were smart, I would wait until they're on the free roster. A cautionary tale.

My goal was always to buy all those... gnome people or whatever they're called, but I gave up because the Lightning Guy is too expensive. For some reason I had Corki though.

Obviously I didn't play very long.

Not a bad idea. I don't play it all that much, though. So many games in the world!

You are stronger than I. Miss Fortune seems fairly generic to me though. Good Fanservice though.

I guess I should start listing clan members, huh?

Aaaaand the results are in! Miss Fortune is very easy to use and yet very good at harassing and generally pissing you off with her Ao E slow! Seriously, fuck her. Sona isn't very game changing, and so far seems to me like generic support. They're both just fanservice anyway. Swain looks to be really cool, especially with transforming into a raven who gets tons of health by chilling out near enemy minions basically.

tl;dr version: Bump.

New patch! I haven't played the new champion, but she certainly seems fun to play. Also, big Morde changes, lesee how that turns out.

Le Blanc was pretty hilarious for me, since she was so broken at release that they nerfed her after two days. I'm noticing a trend with the new champions, in that they're all casters and/or tits. I wonder if it's intentional?

I'm getting back into this. So far, it's pretty fun, I'm having way too much fun with Dr. Mudo. Although early game as him can be kinda tricky, he's a real beast when he's got his health regeneration pumped up, hello AOE hurting at virtually no cost.

Actually, early game is probably when he's at his best. His cleaver spam hurts like hell for no reason. His late game DPS is better done by other carries, and his late game tankiness is better done by other tanks.

Also, Ignite cuts his ultimate's healing in half. sad He's rather vunerable in 5v5, but is generally just plain strong enough to be very useful on 3v3.
